The Alternity Glamour... Forged in the fires of the Elden Flame, A cold shroud of logic cloaks the gate, Hides with the mist of glamour the underlay, The magical nature of this reality. We sport Vulcan ears to chase the clues, All the better to hear quantumn whispers of long ago Wizards, For it is we who reside in Oz, As it resides in our hearts. All we learn, All we do, Just to escape the cold sleep of poppy-field logic, We who awake would cry the names of stars to set them alight. Crystals are memory's frozen tears, And everything below the surface glows, The illusion is constructed of light and will, To this we are bound by our own covenant, Dreaming poppy-eyed dreams of the Alternity Glamour, Waiting to awaken.

My friend, this is the perfect poem for me at this time as well as all humanity. Through imagination, we awaken the possibilities of the universe. There is so much out to there to find. There was a saying by Tolkien:
"'I wish it need not have happened in my time,' said Frodo. 'So do I,' said Gandalf, 'and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
Your poem brought this quote to mind. And your poem was the perfect antidote for the world-weary soul. Love what you have created here for us to behold in wonder and joy.

Deep read here my friend. I kind of feel we are moving to these realms too much to escape the reality of really living real life which to me is the real prize and what really matters most. Good stuff as always.

I think it would do the world a lot of good if the vast majority of people would practise positive visualization and meditation instead of TV. Dan

Good stuff as always. Michael, thank you. I'm a firm believer in staying positive leading to a better living of real life overall. I think that might be the lesson we collectively are being schooled on. Dan
